In our time, it is not always easy to determine the real age of a person. Among my familiar women there are those who are "over forty," but at the same time they look about thirty years old. However, often young people look older than their years. What affects our appearance, what factors make us older in appearance?
We will not touch on the genetic characteristics, because with them nothing can be done, such is nature. More often than not, a person is added some internal and external factors that can be avoided. About them and talk in the article.1. Internal factors. These include: overweight, muscle flabbiness and dehydration of the body. This, perhaps, the main thing that can lead to rapid aging of the body and affect the appearance. Note that even young girls and guys with an overabundance of weight look older than their thin peers. In addition, excess weight can cause heart disease, blood vessels and many others. Any illness leads to "deterioration" of the body and its premature aging.
Lack of muscle is an indicator of the lack of physical activity. It's not enough to be just thin, you have to be in good physical shape, so to speak, in tone. It is not necessary to become an avid athlete. Just exercise regularly at least at home and walk more often. I consider the dryness and dehydration of the body to be the main enemy of youth. And with age, maintaining a normal water balance is becoming more difficult, but it still needs to be done. As it may sound banal, but try to drink more often clean plain water, at least 2 liters a day. Alcohol on the contrary leads to dehydration of the body. This explains the strong thirst for water after a strong hangover.
Caring for the skin and hair with cosmetics containing active moisturizing ingredients. Cosmetic means for skin care have nothing to do with make-up. Moisturizing cream, emulsion and so on can be used, starting at a young age.
2. Behind the external factors that make us look older, it's much easier to follow.
- Makeup. A very bright, highly visible makeup will always add a couple of years, although for a young girl it will be very useful, if there is a party or a trip to a nightclub. In the daytime a strong bright makeup is not only inappropriate and vulgar, it will add to the real age for several years. Especially similar brightness in make-up should be avoided by an adult woman. Ideal day colors - soft pastel colors. Lipstick and rouge should be as natural as possible, close to the natural color of the lips and natural blush. In any case, use cosmetics moderately. Its main task is to unobtrusively emphasize the dignity and hide the existing shortcomings, and not to turn you into a hand-drawn doll.
- Hairstyle and hair color. The basis of a good hairstyle is a good haircut. If you do not know yourself, what haircut you will most go to, consult a hairdresser. There is a huge number of excellent haircuts for hair of different lengths. Here the most important thing is that the chosen haircut you go unconditionally and your hair looked well-groomed. As for color, there is an opinion that blondes look younger than women with dark hair color. In fact, the chosen color should just be as close to you as possible. If by nature you are swarthy, then white color is unlikely to be to your face. The color of the hair should be in harmony with the color of your skin and eyes. Stylists know that coal-black - a very complex color and many women such hair color really grows. If by nature you are the owner of very dark hair, then make them just a little lighter, 1-2 colors. Watch your hair, no matter what color and length they were. Their appearance should radiate a healthy shine - this is a sign of youth.
- Clothing. About the choice of clothes you can say the same thing about choosing a hairstyle - it should suit you. Choose your size. Do not try to squeeze into tight trousers for you or by hooking a hoodie 3 sizes larger, so you will look at least ridiculous. Dress appropriately for age. A woman of fifty, wearing a mini looks as ridiculous as a fifteen-year-old nymph in an old dress. This does not mean that in 50 you need to dress like an old woman. Just clothes, like cosmetics, should advantageously emphasize the figure, hiding the shortcomings of age, and not exposing them. Look for your style and character in clothes. Remember that beauty is at any age, you just have to watch it right. A well-groomed woman can stay young and attractive regardless of age.
